- Unrecognized Collateral AssetYELLOWsthUSD / USDT0
Morpho has flagged the sthUSD / USDT0 market: unrecognized_collateral_asset.
AI vault read
Plain-English summary of this vault — what it does, who runs it, where the yield comes from, and what could break it. Generated from the same deterministic inputs shown elsewhere on this page; the numbers are the source, this is just the explanation.
What this vault does
Depositors put in USDT0 and the vault lends it entirely to borrowers posting sthUSD as collateral. The borrower pays interest on the loan, which flows to depositors as yield; the rate adjusts based on how much of the vault's capital is currently borrowed (82% utilization). Currently earning 0.00% APY.
Who runs it
Gauntlet runs this vault and operates a conservative book focused on a single stablecoin collateral (sthUSD).
Where the yield comes from
No yield is currently being generated — the 0% APY reflects zero borrowing demand or zero rate accrual at present. All $5.0M is deployed into the sthUSD market with no idle cash.
What could break it
sthUSD is flagged by Morpho as an unrecognized collateral asset, which is the material warning here. The vault is also entirely concentrated in one collateral type at an 86% loan-to-value ratio, so any weakness in sthUSD pricing or liquidity creates immediate pressure.
Who this is for
Avoid unless you have specific conviction in sthUSD as collateral and can tolerate concentration risk and an unrecognized-asset warning with no current yield.

Structuralweight 28%
Share-weighted collateral quality + LLTV buffer adequacy. Correlation-aware.
Liquidationweight 20%
Headroom (1 − LLTV) measured in σ-units of 30d realized vol, amplified by utilization.
Yield anomalyweight 20%
Peer-cohort z-score plus absolute-yield band. Excess yield is risk you may not yet model.
Concentrationweight 12%
Market HHI + asset-class HHI + curator's universe TVL share.
Liquidityweight 10%
Util curve position, share locked above 95%, idle buffer.
Maturityweight 10%
Vintage + TVL-time integral. V2 vaults carry an opacity surcharge.
Depeg floorfloor
Hard min from active depeg signal on the loan asset.
Composite = max(Σ weighted + floors). Warning and depeg floors are hard minimums; the weighted sum of the structural factors is the base. A floor highlighted in amber means it is what determines the final score — the protocol or peg signals are louder than our structural model.

What this vault actually does
The Gauntlet USDT0 Balanced vault aims to optimize for risk-adjusted yield across large and medium market cap assets and high liquidity yield sources. The vaults risk strategy follows Gauntlets Balanced framework whereby we curate supply to balance security and yield to provide a low risk profile at competitive APYs
Where the yield comes from
Morpho V2 vault — wraps downstream Morpho markets and V1 vaults via adapters.
Why they may not
Some V2 adapters point at Morpho Blue markets directly; their underlying market detail isn't resolvable in the universe-level fetch, so this vault carries a V2 opacity surcharge in the risk model.

Lending venueLoan asset supplied by the vault.
Reading this map. Direct exposures are the assets the vault holds or lends against. Indirect dependencies (Tab 3) include the protocols that mint those assets, the oracles pricing them, and the bridges that move them. An incident at any indirect dependency can damage the vault even when the direct collateral looks healthy.

V2 adapter routing failure
rare
computedV2 vaults route through adapters into downstream venues. A misbehaving adapter (paused, drained, or pointing at a compromised target) can lock or mismark a portion of the vault until governance acts.
